Re: 992

No doubt and VW Group "accelerated" this process by not dealing properly with this emissions scandal from the start, by not allowing environmental groups and governments getting after them. So dumb... 🙄 If they would have admitted everything and generously compensated EU customers in the process, we wouldn't even talk about it anymore.

Re: 992

For anyone still wondering about the engine in the Porsche 992 GT3, GT3 Touring, GT3 RS, R, etc...

...keep in mind we already know that the new (to be released in 2019) 911 Speedster will have the Porsche Motorsport 4.0 naturally-aspirated flat-six engine...

...that engine is good to go!

what's about regulation in 2020? this is the point you forget here. 911 speedster even with all the BS from marketing, this car will see the road and that was sealed in the marble since many months with 1948 pieces.

Re: 992

The first spy videos of the 991.1 GT3 were published approximately 1 year ahead of its official presentation in Geneva 2013.

Given the fact that we're seeing now spy videos of the 992 GT3, it looks as if it could indeed come out as early as Geneva 2020.

as per plan. 1 regular year for carreras and then the first GT product.so 2020 is right.

but to me (and the discussion I got), this look like communication crap again. that engine was supposed to be there for a long time as GT department is a success due to the crap engine range proposed on the regular 911.

now, and since the past few weeks (summer shutdown), nobody is able to tell you if this engine will stay in this car or not. for record, this engine is on test since july and was decided before may...long time ago.

The reason is the homologation process. you can see 992 being delayed for that reason and the rest of the range which is almost impossible to order except few cars...the decision is not from this team which is a pure petrolhead team but from above and the success and the cost to keep emotion against profit. we all know the answer...enjoy what you can see now, it is not sealed in the marble yet and this video doesn't guarantee you to see NA engine in 18 months.

I can see the presentation already...''we wanted and we tested it but we were forced to go to another direction''
